Strictly spinach!

The same propagation method virtually for all spinach family (esp lagos and african spinach)


In the cause of this post, the vegetables here (both red and green pigments) are african spinach known in the yoruba tribe of Nigeria as 'efo tete'

Both are propagated (grown) in the same way. quite different to get rid in the garden as the flowers once dried are blown away and spread all across the soil and they start growing effortlessly.

Occasionally, i do collect the flowers (basically to sun dry) and keep safe so as to use a different place during a planting season.

Because of poor water system (my fault anyways, I did not make proper water supply system), the leafs are getting rusty and falling off, I think i will be preparing the next seedlings towards the next rain, so i can have them all blossom
